Spineless Republicans have nothing to fear

RE: ... A headline that enraged me. The NYTimes reports that Republicans are afraid.

I have been in service of men, women and their families since Vietnam. These brave people went to war for the Republican Party several times in the last 60 years. They came home with missing body parts, PTSD, families in trauma, bearing the burden for freedom for us all. They were drafted (with) no choice and faced fear everyday . ...

So what in the heck do those spineless Republicans have to fear? They are not on the battlefield, they did not lose friends in a war, they did not have to pick up the pieces of damaged bodies or face their families while they worked through their losses.

They do not face the possible death of a child because their alliance to Trump’s destruction of affordable health care. They go home to their expensive homes, eat good food while children go hungry. They watch their children and grandchildren sleep in warm clean beds, while thousands of children are sold into human trafficking, (or) caged by our government.

Please tell me what is so fearful of Trump. So what (that) they might be compromised. Are they so incapable they cannot reinvent themselves after being kicked out of the party?

Funny they demand this of all seniors. They want us to work until 70, deny us affordable health care and hope we die before they have to spend money to take care of all of us who made them safe in their jobs. Well I am one of their bosses and I fire all the spineless ...

What they do to one of us they do to all of us. Trump being allowed to stay in the White House is a life sentence for brave and courageous citizens, for immigrants who put food on our table, take care of our elderly and fight in the Republicans’ wars.

Trump is the deep state; proof is in the fact he set up a back-door illegal diplomacy looking for dirt on a political opponent. Hillary and Bill Clinton stood tall, and so did Jimmy Carter, while those spineless Republicans used character assassination. They not only stood tall, they continued to serve citizens in a compassionate and honorable way.

So do not talk to me about how the spineless Republicans are afraid.
